Suderwick town centre development
Bocholt's Suderwick district is getting a facelift: in March 2025, the city council approved the town centre development concept (OKEK) for Suderwick. The aim is to significantly increase the quality of life in the village centre, enhance the townscape and protect the green structure at the same time. Suderwick's special identity remains in the foreground - even if the view across the border to Dinxperlo is expressly permitted.
Suderwick should not only become more beautiful - it is also about improving quality of life and climate resilience. New recreational areas, well-tended green structures and an upgraded townscape will help people feel even more at home here. At the same time, the connection to its Dutch neighbour Dinxperlo will be strengthened - but without giving up its own character.
What is being done?

The concept includes the redesign of Sporker Straße West, the village square and sections of Wiggerstraße and Sporker Straße Ost. The first measures are scheduled to start in 2026 - in parallel with the necessary civil engineering work.
It will start with Sporker Straße West, followed by the new village square from 2027. In total, the city is investing around 3.2 million euros in the redesign, with part of the costs to be covered by funding from the "Structure and Village Development" programme of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
